I just typed unqualifying into Google.
The search did not reveal a single book or article with the word unqualifying.



Hi GMATGuruNY - if you dont know unqualifying is NOT a real word - is there any other way to eliminate A and B ? Trying to figure out a way to eliminate A and B using meaning / logic.

ii) I was wondering if verb-tense (marked in reds in the pic) was a genuine split ?


Hello jabhatta2,

We hope this finds you well.

Having gone through the question and your query, we believe we can resolve your doubt.

In the case of Option A, the only error is the incoherent meaning produced by "unqualifying". Besides that, A is a bit inferior to C because of the use of the passive construction "labor’s...support", which is less direct than C's "support...of labor".

In the case of Option B, the use of the simple present continuous tense verb "are...receiving" is indeed an error, as there is no logical reason for using this tense instead of the present perfect tense verb "have...received".

We hope this helps.
All the best!

ExpertsGlobal5 - between the usage of present perfect tense {option A and option C) vs present tense (option D) -- does one usage make MORE sense than the other usage ?

Hello jabhatta2,

We hope this finds you well.

To answer your query, both tenses make logical sense in this context.

We hope this helps.
